A sticky footer only works with a fixed height footer (although you can use ems if necessary.)

Thanks Paul I will give it a go.

By "dynamic situations" do you mean responsive sites, or just resizing of browser window? Or something else?

My site is just a centered 960px grid. It's quite likely there will be some IE6, 7 and 8 users so I will give it a good test in those browsers.

IE8 should be ok. It's just that ie7 and under frequently misplace absolute elements when placed at the bottom of 100% wrapper when inner content is inserted and removed via javascript (such as in a hide and show). There is JS fix though if this happens and you have to cause the page to reflow which can be done by testing a classname on the body or other element after your routine has finished (el.className = el.className;//reflow).

I don't think Moodle uses a huge amount of javascript if any at all so with any luck I'll be ok.
